That is amazing, as a guy who is building his own homebrew computer, it makes me drooool. BTW EPROM s are chips that hold code (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory). It's where the BIOS code would sit in that diagram. Of course that is if you were doing a IBM Compatible computer, you could program it to store a ASM app or a OS etc.
@Xearo167 Its a piece of history. To hear of it sold for gold would be so sad.

Exactly, you get more money for it as "history piece" anyway.

My bottom jaw is still on the floor from you saying you got it for only $1.00
The seller must have been unaware of the value.
Not the best find ever but getting it for $1.00 is deffinately something to brag about.

That's kick ass !
quite a lesson.
you are very wealthy to have such pieces of electronic history.
That kit is very valueable , I would price it at about , $1000.00 american.
That would be just for starters , extra for the unpackaged CPUs.

Don't touch the chips with your fingers!! The components are sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge. It can ruin the chips!
